GroupM and MMA launch 'Transform to Thrive' – a guide for modern marketers

GroupM, along with MMA, has launched a guide for modern marketers - titled “Transform to Thrive”.

With insights from industry leaders and practical advice for implementation, this compilation aims to serve as a resource for organisations striving to achieve transformational success.

Amidst these uncertain times, marketers also need to expand their focus on protecting their advertising spends from the rising threat of sophisticated fraud. A critical component in achieving this is ensuring safe inventory to engage the "right audience" with advertising campaigns. Brands must adopt a customer-centric advertising approach, prioritising the protection and acknowledgement of their consumers' interests.

The landscape of customisation has extended beyond media, with strategies such as QR scans on products to build "always on" engagement, exclusive product bundles for omnichannel, and leveraging the strength of online marketplaces for key occasions. Marketers are urged to embrace dynamic marketing strategies that cater to individual customer preferences and preferences for communication channels.

Furthermore, building flexible distribution networks that can quickly adapt to changing customer preferences is crucial. Organisations must pace up technological innovation to foster omnichannel growth and digitise supply chains, enabling real-time inventory management and delivery.

"A Marketer's dashboard is spruced with business numbers, social numbers, service/outages, and innovation, all tied to delivering a superlative experience. This holistic approach ensures that marketing strategies are aligned with business goals, social engagement, service reliability, and innovation, all contributing to an exceptional customer experience. We embrace these trends and strive to provide innovative solutions that meet the evolving needs of our customers," said Prasanth Kumar, CEO – GroupM South Asia.
